I've just upgraded rust-bzip2 to 0.6.1.  Please update the patch in
rust-rustls-webpki accordingly so that they can migrate together :)

BTW, i note that debian/patches/2002_bzip2.patch adjusted the crate
dependencies this way:

-bzip2 = "0.6"
+bzip2 = ">= 0.4.4, <= 0.6"


I think what you really want in this patch is:

-bzip2 = "0.6"
+bzip2 = ">= 0.4.4, < 0.7"

because the original line implies "anything semver-compatible with 0.6"
(which includes, for example, 0.6.1, and really anything up to 0.7).

The change in 2002_bzip2.patch only implies "anything up to 0.6", which
does *not* include 0.6.1, so it's currently blocking rust-bzip2's
potential migration.

Thanks for your work on rust-rustls-webpki!
